They exist for golfers and fishermen that decide to buy firearms and ammunition on a whim. They are not there for real hunters and shooters that have the knowledge to call  on their products and their pricing of said products. Dude...come on! I'm a golfer! Well actualy I used to be a golfer but still! And no I will never do business with them. A friend told me about them years ago, a non-golfer! And I went by to check it out. When I saw their prices I simply turned and walked out. They were a joke back then and apparently still are today. The name sure makes them sound good and if you do not know what you're doing you'll spend way too much there!

Ditto to all that was said.
This is America and they can make their choices and hide behind bs "moral high ground" all they want. It's their prerogative. In turn, I choose to not show loyalty to a company that shows none in return. For example On the flip side SWFA maybe not always be the least expensive, but they've been real good to me and in turn I don't even really shop around the scope and scope accessories anymore.
They may not care whether they lost me forever, i don't care if they go down. We all have to live the choices we make.
I'm a dude who likes long barrels!

Wow I didn't know they did that. I just got back into guns this year after being strictly bowhunting aside from shotgunning. I won't be shopping there either now that I know.

It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

Several years ago, I used to order occasionally from them until they did the price gouging thing. Since then I've had them blocked from both my personal and company email.

I still let them send me their catalogs though that way it costs them the postage to do so. Good bathroom reading. That's all those catalogs are good for.

The only way I'm spending any money with them in the future is if it's at a going out of business sale!
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

I'll avoid them unless they have a stupid sale on something.
I had a LGS try to sell me a scope for a 22. They wanted $149 + tax; Amazon would put it in my mailbox for $102. They tried to tell me it was a fair price. They also tried to sell me a Ruger 10/22 for $389 that Bud's had for $313. Hell, even Gander Mountain had it for $349. Now I don't mind paying a bump for locals, but don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.

No store anymore in that location. They changed the name and are now on Eastchase Parkway to the north of I-30.
